Gary revealed last year that he and David used to be roommates when they played together, but it didn’t work out.
“I had Becks [David Beckham] to start with [as an international roommate] but we weren’t compatible in terms of cleanliness and sleeping times – he stayed up late and I went to bed early,” he said on the Stick to Football podcast (via Daily Mail).
He added, “I used to go to bed at 9pm and wake up at 5am, he would stay up until 11pm and want to wake up at 8am, so essentially he was keeping me up from 9 until 11 and then I was getting him up at 5 in the morning, so it just wasn’t working at all.”
Watch the trailer below. The documentary will debut on Prime Video on May 17.
